Explanation:

MQV

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQV

MQV (Menezes--Qu--Vanstone) is an authenticated protocol for key agreement based on the Diffie--Hellman scheme. Like other authenticated Diffie--Hellman schemes, MQV provides protection against an active attacker. The protocol can be modified to work in an arbitrary finite group, and, in particular, elliptic curve groups, where it is known as elliptic curve MQV (ECMQV).

Incorrect answers:

RSA - (Rivest--Shamir--Adleman) is a public-key cryptosystem that is widely used for secure data transmission. It is also one of the oldest. The acronym RSA comes from the surnames of Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman, who publicly described the algorithm in 1977.

AES - Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known by its original name Rijndael, is a specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2001.

DES - Data Encryption Standard is a symmetric-key algorithm for the encryption of digital data.
